Phylogeny and Identification of <i>Nocardia</i> Species on the Basis of Multilocus Sequence Analysis
16 Sept 2010
Abstract excerpt
Nocardia species identification is difficult due to a complex and rapidly changing taxonomy, the failure of 16S rRNA and cellular fatty acid analysis to discriminate many species, and the unreliability of biochemical testing. Here, Nocardia species identification was achieved through multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) of gyrase B of the β subunit of DNA topoisomerase (gyrB), 16S rRNA (16S), subunit A of SecA...
